In plain English

The UK Ministry of Defence is looking for suppliers to provide on-water clothing and equipment for military personnel. This is a framework agreement (meaning you can be on the approved list but there's no guaranteed work) split into four categories: water suits, heated jackets, marine safety helmets, and balaclavas. The contract is worth between £30 million and £74 million over 5 years.

What the buyer wants

• Supply on-water clothing and protective equipment that meets military standards and specifications • Register on the Leidos Jaggaer eProcurement system to bid and submit your tender response • Potentially fulfil orders across one or more of the four lots (suits, heated jackets, helmets, balaclavas) if selected to the framework

Lots

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This contract almost certainly requires you to be an established manufacturer or significant distributor with proven military supply experience, security clearance capability, and the capacity to meet large-scale orders. Most small independent tradespeople will not qualify.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
